White Collar Boy Belle and Sebastian
Youâ??re a white[D] collar boy and you gave into the law
Give[G] in to the [D/F#]pressure the [Em]cops gonna g[D]etcha
[D]You were a thieving dog at work until they caught your little paw
Your [G]wage wonâ??[D/F#]t stretch, t[Dm/F]o picking up[E7] checks
A [A]custodial sentence you [D]narrowly avoided
[B]Community service you [Em]had to go al[Em7]ong with
Youâ??r[A]e banging the rocks at the old city docks
Poor [D]boy poor [C]boy poor [G]boy poor [A]boy
Poor [D]boy poor [C]boy poor [G]boy poor [A]boy
[D]You were chained to a girl that would kill you with a look
Itâ?[G]?s a nice w[D/F#]ay to die she[Em]â??s so easy[D] on the eye
[D]She said letâ??s get away, but you played it by the book
Youâ?[G]?re a warde[D/F#]nâ??s pet, s[Dm/F]heâ??s a scr[E7]eaming suffragette
â?[A]?We ainâ??t in prison, [D]weâ??ll just finish up and go homeâ??
[B]She said, â??Not for m[Em]e, Iâ??ve go[Em7]t plans for later onâ??
So she [A]belted the sarge and she jumped on a barge
You f[D]ell, you [C]fell you [G]fell you [A]fell
You f[D]ell, you [C]fell you [G]fell you [A]fell
[G]White collar, got [F]dirt in your pants
You got [C]egg in your hair
You got [D#]spit in your chin
[G]White collar, [F]scared to be [C]bored
[G]Blue Collar, sheâ??[F]s openin[C]g doors
[G]White collar [F]boy, on the [C]run from the [D]law
[D] [G] [C] [F] [A#] [D#]

She said â??You ainâ??t ugly, you can kiss me if you likeâ??
Go a[G]head and ki[D/F#]ss her, you d[Em]onâ??t know [D]what youâ??re missing
[D]You said â??Baby, youâ??re special, but thereâ??s something not quite right.â??
Sheâ?[G]?s a Venus [D/F#]in flares an[Dm/F]d you wanna [E7]split hairs!
â?[A]?I am innocent, you are[D] a rocket.
[B]Things were ok till yo[Em]u took out t[Em7]he copperâ??
Leave m[A]e alone, and get used to the chains
Youâ?[D]?re a pai[C]n, a pain[G], a pain,[A] a pain
Youâ?[D]?re a pai[C]n, a pain[G], a pain,[A] a pain
[G]White collar, got [F]dirt in your pants
You got [C]egg in your hair
You got [D#]spit in your chin
[G]White collar, got [F]dirt in your pants
You got [C]egg in your hair
You got [D#]spit in your chin
[G]White collar, [F]scared to be [C]bored
[G]Blue Collar, sheâ??[F]s openin[C]g doors
[G]White collar [F]boy, on the [C]run from the [D]law
